A poetic journey that leads through the five stages of grief.
Denial, Anger, Bargaining, Depression, and Acceptance.
Curing My Venom is about mental illness, failures, and self-healing.
Tiny speck of hope
peeking through my window
tell me what you seek
there is nothing for you here
maybe you should leave
I am just an ounce of emptiness
fading behind this dark
stay away from me
before you lose your spark.
O’ my foolish child
how do you not know?
You are the light I come for
and yet you have no clue?
this spark you see in me
is a reflection of you.
Because, darling, you are hope

What Inspired You to Write Your Book?
I was going through the five stages of grief, and I couldn't explain myself to the people around me. So, I wrote down everything as a form of self-healing. All my energy, negative and positive, would flow through my pen and stick to the pages. My sister, who loves to draw did the illustrations.
Book Sample
But I am not God!
I know, but you can be the answer
to someone else's call
you can be the net
to someone else's fall.
You can be the shade
to someone else's rain
and you can be the salve
to someone else’s pain.
You don't need to be a superhero
to wipe away a tear
you can be the courage
to someone else's fear.
Look my love
in a world where you can be anything
I ask you to be strong
put down your ego
and for once be the melody
to someone else's song.
I know you don't have powers
but you must save yourself too
because only then will you help
someone else get through
you don't need to be powerful
to help another soul
but if you can
then I ask you to be someone else's cure.
Be kind, my love
